Abstract
- A 42-year-old woman was treated with total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo- oophorectomy due to endometrial carcinoma 3 years ago, and has taken regular check-ups ever since. A 1.0cm-sized, yellow-orange colored, pedunculated mass had ben developed on her scalp about 1 year before. Excision showed an exophytic pedunculated, well-circumscribed nodule composed of predominant undifferentiated basaloid cells, some vacuolated sebocytes and numerous sebaceous duct like structures. There was no relapse during the follow-up of about 6 months. The development of sebaceous epithelioma in this case would be associated with Muir-Torre syndrome.
